Here, using two-species microbial assemblages as a model system, the authors show that adaptation can alter the tipping points of an ecological community. Microbial communities rely on metabolic ...

Though a founding concept of ecology suggests that the physical environment determines where organisms can survive, modern ...

Volcanic activity alters the Earth's surface and promotes the development of new ecosystems, providing valuable models for ...

LorMe Provides a robust collection of functions tailored for microbial ecology analysis, encompassing both data analysis and visualization. It introduces an encapsulation feature that streamlines the ...

Almost all multicellular creatures on Earth form symbiotic relationships with extremely extensive and complex microbial ...

In a new study, researchers have determined through both statistical analysis and in experiments that soil pH is a driver of microbial community composition -- but that the need to address toxicity ...

Under the leadership of the DTU National Food Institute, researchers from 11 European universities, institutions and ...
